Mumbai : A woman who hailed from a distinguished and highly educated family was subjected to harassment at the hands of her husband for over five years. The victim finally mustered to narrate her harrowing ordeal to police and her story shocked everyone to the core. According to the victim, the man married her after he came to know that she earned a decent salary of Rs 80,000 per month.

After his wedding 'plan' was successful, he threatened the victim with divorce on just the second day of the marriage and on the same day, he snatched her debit card. Subsequently, he left his job and started spending her salary on gambling and on his lavish lifestyle. What’s more shocking is that he rejected any form of physical relationship with his wife for five years the birth of a child would not disrupt his lifestyle.
It was his assumption that if a child came into their life, the woman might have to leave her job. Upon receiving her complaint, police registered a case against her husband, Amit Shah, his parents and his sister at Borivali police station.

Rashmi, a resident of Mumbai’s Borivali area, is employed in a reputed company. In 2013, she was married to Amish Shah. Just when Rashmi started dreaming of a happy family, her husband snatched her debit card saying, “If you tells someone about it, I will give you divorce.”
The victim’s ordeal was made worse by the ill-treatment at the hands of her in-laws as well. Trying to shield her parents and not to ‘tarnish’ their reputation, she kept on bearing it all. After returning from her job, she would regularly do household chores till late night. Such was her plight that she only got three hours of sleep and she got sick due to her schedule. Her father paid her medication bills because her husband was taking her all money away.

The accused also took Rs 10 lakh as loan in the name of starting a business. In March 2018, her in-laws threw her out of their house for not coughing up Rs 15 lakh. They also insisted on giving half of her father's property to the accused else she would be killed. Borivali police is investigating the case and the man has been arrested.
